I took this shot at Pickering and today I finally spent a bit of time finding out what it is. It's a mix of cod liver oil and unsweetened orange juice and it was popular during the war as a way of giving children vitamins and minerals they might otherwise have lacked. It reminds me of the cod liver oil and malt that we were given as children. Any malt in my diet now still comes in liquid form and is generally in Guinness or another stout.
